Debates

For our debates we will be using this score sheet. http://myweb.lmu.edu/tshanahan/nt-debatescoring.html

It would be great to get everyone on board for some "real" debates with points and such during Term 2.

You may wish to read up on debating before trying it out. Here is a useful website: http://www.kyrene.org/schools/brisas/sunda/debate/teaching_debate.htm and another http://www.educationworld.com/a_lesson/lesson/lesson304b.shtml

Some other topics:

Professional athletes' salaries
Year Round school
Animals Used in Research

It would be also be interesting to film the debates. If you have a video camera bring it and we can videotaope the debates..
